Windows RE tools partition

[xeroid]

So, if I'm reading this correctly, partition 5 is the one that isn't being used (see attached). What's the easiest way to delete that partition?

If you're absolutely sure you don't need the last partition (which is probably a left over or a OEM partition) and you want a clean way to remove that partition without any space left after your Windows RE partition, you can do the following steps. I verified those steps in a VM to make sure it works.

Be very careful though, it's important to do these steps exactly:

1. First you want to open an administrator cmd shell (cmd.exe run as admin)
   
2. Disable RE temporarily:
   reagentc /disable
   
3. Start diskpart utility:
   diskpart
   
4. Select your disk 1 (according to your screenshots, verify with list disk first):
   sel disk 1
   
5. Delete the old RE partition (according to your screenshots, verify with list part first):
   sel part 5 - then - del part 5 override
   
6. Delete the current RE partition (according to your screenshots, verify with list part first):
   sel part 4 - then - del part 4 override
   
7. Locate your "Windows" partition, this should be 2 or 3 (according to your screenshots):
   list part
   
8. Select your correct "Windows" partition (important!):
   sel part 2 - or - sel part 3
   
9. Extend partition to the complete disk:
   extend
   
10. Shrink partition to leave 800 MB on the right:
    shrink desired=800
    
11. Create a new GPT recovery partition (according to your screenshots you use GPT, not MBR, verify first!):
    create part primary id=de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac
    
12. Set GPT attributes to hide the new partition (make sure it's selected with list part first, it should be):
    gpt attributes=0x8000000000000001
    
13. Format your new partition with NTFS:
    format fs=ntfs quick
    
14. Exit diskpart:
    exit
    
15. Re-enable RE:
    reagentc /enable
    

Now you should see the new recovery partition with ~800MB, something like that:



And reagentc /info should report the new partition as RE target:

Thanks for your information! Your instructions are very detailed, but I got spooked right when I started.  So, I installed Paragon and gave that a whirl.  I think it came out ok! See attached.
